ITEM 6: Public Hearing: AIRLAKE DEVELOPMENT FOURTH ADDITION
Chair Drotning opened the public hearing for consideration of the applications of
APPRO Development, Inc. and Airlake Development,. Inc. for the following: 1) a
preliminary and final plat of 25 lots and three outlots on two blocks to be known as
Airlake Development Fourth Addition; 2) a rezoning of the portion of the proposed
Airlake Development Fourth Addition lying in the NE'/ of the NW'/4 of Section 33 from
-2, General Industrial District to I-1, Limited Industrial District; 3) a Conditional Use
Permit to allow impervious surface coverage greater than 25% in the Shoreland
Overlay District; and 4) the vacation of permanent public sanitary sewer, .roadway,
drainage and utility easements currently existing on the subject properly. Assistant
City Attorney Poehler attested that the legal notices had been duly published and
mailed in accordance with state statutes.
Jack Matasosky, APPRO Development,. Inc.,. presented a summary of the applications
of APPRO Development, Inc. and Airlake Development, Inc. to allow the development
of Airlake Development Fourth Addition. Applications have been submitted for the
preliminary and final plat of Airlake Development Fourth Addition, a proposed industrial
subdivision consisting of 25 industrial lots and three outlots on approximately 50 acres
of property lying. south of County Road 50 (Lakeville Boulevard) and west of Hamburg
Avenue.
• Mr. Matasosky indicated that the subject property is currently zoned I-1, Limited
Industrial District and 1-2, General Industrial District and lies partly within the South
Creek Shoreland Overlay District. An application has been submitted requesting a
rezoning of the easterly portion of the subject parcel from I-2 to 1-1 to provide
consistent setbacks and .uses within the plat.
Mr. Matasosky also indicated that an application has been submitted requesting a
Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to allow impervious surface coverage greater than 25
percent in the Shoreland Overlay District abutting South Creek. Mr. Matasosky. noted
that, upon staffs recommendation, this CUP is proposed to encompass the entire plat,
rather than processing .separate CUPs for each individual lot.
Mr. Matasosky stated that APPRO Development and Airlake Development, Inc. are in
agreement with the stipulations for approval of the Airlake Development Fourth
Addition as outlined in the July 30,1999 Planning Report.
Associate Planner Ron Mullenbach presented the Planning Report and indicated that
Airlake Development, Inc. has administratively subdivided this site to accommodate
the relocation of two existing Lakeville businesses. Perma Groove is proposing to
construct a 27,000 square foot office/manufacturing facility on Lot 1, Block 1 of the
proposed plat and Main Street Automotive. is proposing to construct a 1,620 square
• foot minor auto repair shop on Lot 2, Block 2 of the proposed plat. Perma Groove is
relocating from their current site in the Airlake Industrial Park and Main Street
Automotive is relocating from their current site in downtown Lakeville as a part of the
HRA Downtown Senior Housing project. Both businesses have begun construction

prior to the final platting of the subject site under an agreement approved by the City
Council.
Rezoning
Associate Planner Mullenbach indicated that the developer is requesting a rezoning of
the easterly portion of the subject parcel from I-2 to I-1. The proposed 25 industrial
lots meet the minimum lot area and width requirements for the I-1, Limited Industrial
District. The development of Airlake Development Fourth Addition for industrial uses
is consistent with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan.
Preliminary and Final Plat
Associate Planner Mullenbach provided details of the proposed subdivision layout
which encompasses 50.4 acres located south of CSAH 50, east of the Johnson
Professional Building, west of Hamburg Avenue, and north of the middle branch of
South Creek. The proposed subdivision consists of 25 lots within two blocks and
includes three outlots. A local loop street off CSAH 50 (Lakeville Boulevard) is
proposed to serve the plat. Lots 1 and 2, Block 2 and Lots 10 and 11, Block 1 are
proposed to have direct driveway access on CSAH 50. All other driveways from the
proposed subdivision will gain access onto the new proposed local loop street, Heron
Way. There is a strong possibility that some of these lots to be administratively
combined in the future when industrial users are identified.
• Conditional Use Permit
Associate Planner Mullenbach indicated that APPRO Development is requesting a
conditional use permit (CUP) to allow impervious surface coverage greater than 25
percent in the Shoreland Overlay District. Proposed Lots 1-11, 13 and 14, Block 2,
Airlake Development Fourth Addition lie entirely or partly within the Shoreland Overlay
District. The CUP is proposed to cover the entire plat to allow for better planning for
green space and stormwater management, rather than processing separate CUPs for
each individual lot.
Mr. Mullenbach indicated that a Shoreland Impact Plan has been submitted and
reviewed by City staff. The Shoreland Impact Plan provides for the design and
construction of nutrient removal/percolation basins. Outlots A and C, which lie almost
entirely within the Shoreland Overlay District, represent 37 percent of the total plat
area within the Shoreland Overlay District. These outlots will be dedicated to the City
and contain infiltration basins, shoreland, flood plain, and wetland areas. Therefore,
the total maximum impervious surface coverage will be less than 63 percent due to
additional green space created by required setbacks.
Mr. Mullenbach noted that the Environmental Affairs Committee (EAC) reviewed the
preliminary and final plat for Airlake Development Fourth Addition at their August 3,
1999 regular meeting and recommended approval of the plat, grading, and. utility plans
subject to the incorporation of comments from the Department of Natural Resources
(DNR) and Dakota County Soil and Water Conservation District (DCSWCD) to the
extent possible. '

Easement Vacations
Associate Planner Ron Mullenbach indicated that APPRO Development and Airlake
Development have also submitted an application for the vacation of existing
permanent public sanitary sewer, roadway, drainage and utility easements in
conjunction with the preliminary and final plat, rezoning, and conditional use permit
applications. New easements will be dedicated on the final plat except for side yard
boundary easements The City Engineer will review each site plan to determine side
boundary. drainage and utility easement locations at the time that each lot or
combination of lots is proposed for development.
Mr. Mullenbach indicated that Outlot A of the proposed plat encompasses floodplain,
wetland, and shoreland area. Outlot A will be deeded by the developer to the City for
protection of he creek and a greenway connection along South Creek. Outlot C
includes a nutrient removal and sedimentation basin and lies almost entirely within the
shoreland Overlay District. Outlot C will be deeded by the developer to the City.
Associate Planner Mullenbach stated that if the Planning Commission recommends
approval to the City Council of the Airlake Development Fourth Addition preliminary
and final plat, rezoning, .conditional use permit, and easement vacation applications,
Community and Economic Development staff recommends compliance with the
stipulations as listed in the July 30, 1999 Planning Report..
Commissioner Wulff expressed concern for the proposed access from the Main Street
Automotive site to CSAH 50. Associate Planner Mullenbach indicated that direct
access to CSAH 50 was negotiated between the City and the owner for the relocation
of Main Street Automotive as a part of the HRA Downtown Senior Housing Project.
approved by City Council. Because Main Street Automotive currently has access onto
a main road (Holyoke Avenue), the owner expressed his desire to retain exposure to
and access onto a main roadway. Assistant City Engineer Tim Hanson stated that
CSAH 50 (Lakeville Boulevard) will be turned back to the City and no longer function
as a regional roadway when 202"d Street between Holyoke Avenue and Cedar Avenue
is widened and eventually extended east of Cedar to Farmington in the future.
Commissioner Wulff asked if trash and floatable debris skimming devices will be
placed on the outlet of all on-site detention basins as required by Subdivision
Ordinance 10-4-6:B.9.a.(9). Assistant City Engineer Hanson indicated. that a weir can
be incorporated into the design of the holding pond. Mr. Matasosky indicated that the
developer is willing to comply with this requirement.
Commissioner Wulff expressed concern that adequate landscaping and berming will
be installed to screen parking lot areas when the industrial property is developed.
Commissioner Comer asked how staff will ensure that there is conformity of
landscaping along CSAH 50 as each industrial lot is developed.
Mr. Mullenbach indicated that the Landscape Corridor Design Study has been adopted
by City Council. As each lot is developed, the builder will be required to submit a

landscape plan.. Staff will review each site plan for compliance with the landscape
ordinance requirements and for conformity with the Landscape Corridor Design Study.
Mr. Brad Johnson, 8500 210t" Street, introduced himself as the owner of Johnson
Properties which owns the Johnson Professional Building and Johnson Apartments
located immediately west of proposed Outlot B of the development. Mr. Johnson
expressed concerns that adequate year-round screening be provided between the
future industrial uses and his office and apartment use. Further, Mr. Johnson
expressed concern for impact on existing traffic flow on CSAH 50 stating his belief that
25 industrial lots will generate considerably more traffic which may be a safety issue.
for area residents. Staff responded that the Main Street Automotive parking lot is on
the north side of the building and when the building and parking area is expanded
additional landscaping will be required.
There were no more comments from the audience.
99.84 MOTION by Wulff, Second by Comer to close the public hearing at 6:50 p.m.
Ayes: Drotning, Rieb, Comer, WulfF, Bellows, Kot, Moates.
Nays:. 0.
Chair Drotning questioned whether additional shade trees are being installed over the
• ponding area. Mullenbach identified the. shade trees on the plans for the ponds and
indicated that, in the future, an eight-foot trail is planned by the City for construction
along the greenway corridor which will abut the ponding area for this development.
The Parks and Recreation Director has indicated that canopy trees may be planted
along this corridor when the trail is constructed that will serve as additional shade over
the creek channel
Commissioner Wulff asked if the developer would be willing to restrict Lots 10 and 11,
Block 1 to one shared driveway access to CSAH 50. Mr. Matasosky stated he would
be agreeable to the stipulation for one driveway access for these two lots. The
Commission agreed to an additional stipulation for approval as follows: "Lots 10 and
11, Block 1 shall be limited to a total of one driveway onto CSAH 50."
99.85 MOTION by Kot, Second by Rieb to recommend to City Council approval of the Airlake

ITEM 7. PUBLIC HEARING: PAUL AND .IEANETTE RAMEY: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND VARIANCE
Planning Commission Meeting Minutes
August 5, 1999
Page 7
Chair Drotning opened the public hearing. for consideration of the application of Paul
Ramey for the following: 1) a Conditional Use Permit to allow the construction of a
HAM radio antenna higher than 15 feet above the ground; .and 2) a Variance to allow
the. antenna to be located on the lot at a location less than the required setback to the
property line. Assistant City Attorney Poehler attested that the legal notice had been
duly published and mailed as required by state statute.
Commissioner Bellows excused himself from participation in the discussion and voting
on Mr. Ramey's conditional use permit and variance applications due to a potential
conflict of interest. Commissioner Bellows indicated his brother was representing the
Ramey's as their legal counsel for their applications.
John Bellows, Attorney at Law, stated he was serving as legal counsel to Mr. Ramey
with regard to Mr. Ramey's requests for a conditional use permit and variance to allow
the installation of a HAM radio antenna tower on his property located at 17102 Firtree
Place. Mr. Ramey is licensed by the Federal .Communications Commission (FCC) and
proposed to use the tower for personal use and public service.
Mr. Ramey is proposing to install a 68-foot amateur radio antenna tower with a two-
- foot antenna appurtenance in the rear yard of his residential lot located in the Meadow
Brook First Addition. The subject property is zoned R-2, Single Family Residential
District. Antennas higher than 15 feet in the R-2 District require a conditional use
• permit. The total height of the antenna would be 70 feet.
Mr. Bellows further indicated that City's Zoning Ordinance requires that antennas be
set back a minimum of ten feet from any other building and setback from all adjoining
lots. a distance equivalent to the height of the structure. Mr. Ramey is proposing to
place the HAM radio antenna 18 feet from the rear property line, 48 feet from the
south (side) property line and 55 feet from the north (side) property line.
Mr. Ramey has stated that a minimum antenna height of 70 feet is needed in order
that he may engage in reliable and effective international communication via his. HAM
radio equipment.
Mr. Bellows stated that the applicant agrees to comply with the staff recommended
stipulations for approval of the conditional use permit and variance with exception to
Stipulation No. 3 which prohibits the guy wires of the proposed antenna from being
located within the drainage and/or utility easement. Mr. Ramey is proposing to anchor
the antenna with guy wires that would be installed in the rear ten-foot wide drainage
and utility easement. Mr. Bellows noted that the 6'h-foot anchors would be completely
underground. and the guide wires and anchors could be removed if any. work had to be
done within the easements.
• Associate Planner Frank Dempsey presented the staff report and stated that the
drainage and utility easement must be left unobstructed for access purposes and staff
cannot support the placement of the guy wires and anchors in the existing easement.
Planning Commission Meeting Minutes
August 5, 1999
Page 8
Planner Dempsey noted that since the adoption of the current Zoning Ordinance
regulating the construction and operation of radio antennas, there has been court
cases that have tested the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ruling that
limits local zoning authority over radio antennas. Mr. Dempsey briefly summarized the
role of local jurisdictions. and the role of the FCC in allowing amateur radio operations.
Attempts by cities to limit the height of amateur radio towers based upon concerns of
interference with television reception, safety, and aesthetics have been rejected by the
courts.
Associate Planner Dempsey indicated. that if the Planning Commission recommends
approval to the City Council the conditional use permit and variance applications of Mr.
Paul Ramey, Community and Economic Development Department staff recommends
compliance with the stipulations as listed in the July 30, 1999 Planning Report, in
addition to the following stipulations: 1) the antenna shall be maintained in a safe
condition; 2) the supporting tower shall be designed to not be climbable by
unauthorized persons; and 3) any additional appurtenances other than. the approved
antenna shall require an amendment to the CUP.
Mr. Bellows responded that he agreed with the three additional stipulations.
The Planning Commission raised several concerns for further discussion and
clarification. Primary issues cited were as follows: 1) impact on personal electronic
• and communications equipment of the surrounding residents; 2) public safety; 3)
maintenance and upkeep of the tower; 4) aesthetic appearance; 5) installation
methods and requirements for experienced and trained personnel for construction of
the antenna tower structure; 6} annual or bi-annual inspection requirements; 7)
existing and proposed fencing.
Commissioner Wulff noted that the real estate study by Russ Wehner, Jr., MAI, SRPA,
dated April 9, 1988 states on Page 11, No. 8 requires authorization to use this study
for any purpose. Commissioner Wulff requested that this report be removed from
public record unless the applicant can provide written consent and approval from the
Appraiser.
Mr. Bellows stated he will comply with Commissioner Wulff's request by acquiring a
letter of authorization from Mr. Wehner, Appraiser and author of the real estate study.
Chair Drotning opened the hearing for public comments..
Dennis Mohr, 17062 Firtree Place, .stated he was opposed to allowing the antenna
structure in his residential neighborhood. Mr. Mohr stated that he finds it difficult to
understand how radio antenna structures cannot be restricted or prohibited in
residential districts when residential neighborhoods are subject to minimum
performance standards such as landscaping, sodding versus seeding, etc.
• Tom Gray, 17124 Firestone Path, asked if Mr. Ramey would consider a shorter
antenna. Mr. Gray expressed concern for public safety and impact on property values.
Planning Commission Meeting Minutes
August 5, 1999
Page 9
• Mr. Gray asked if the requirement for the 4-foot non-climbable fence included a
mandate for aself-closing, self-locking gate if a gate is installed. Mr. Gray further
noted that the subject property appears to be located within a floodway or flood plain
district or on the fringe of a floodway district. City Ordinance 11-45-6:C. does not
permit accessory uses in the Flood Fringe District.
Mr. Bellows reiterated his earlier statement that a minimum antenna height of 70 feet
is needed. in order that Mr. Ramey may engage in reliable and effective international
communication. Mr. Ramey is proposing a compromise antenna rather than an
optimum. The proposed height and location of the antenna was chosen in an attempt
to minimize its visibility to neighboring properties. Mr. Ramey would not be interested
in a reduced height of the antenna. Mr. Bellows indicated that the tower will. be located
inside a fenced area and will also have anti-climb devices installed on it.
Assistant City Engineer Tim Hanson stated he will review the elevations of the subject
lot and determine the Flood Plain District delineation.
Sam Rott, 17135 Firtree Place, stated that there is a ponding area to the rear of Mr.
Ramey's lot that is used by waterfowl. Mr. Rott asked whether the presence of an
antenna tower will interfere with the wildlife in the pond.
Mr. Bellows stated that of the many studies done on radio antenna structures there.
. has. been no evidence of any correlation or impact on birds, waterfowl and other
wildlife habitat.
There were no further comments from the audience.
99.86 MorioN by Kot, Second by Rieb to close the public hearing at 8:05 p.m.
Ayes: Comer, Wulff, Kot, Moates, Drotning, Rieb.
Nays: 0.
Abstain: Bellows.
Assistant City Attorney Poehler noted that staff recommended Stipulation No. 7 is
inconsistent with the exclusive jurisdiction of the FCC and should be deleted as a
stipulation for action on the Ramey applications.
Commissioner Wulff asked if Mr. Ramey would consider atower/antenna designed so
that it can be extended to the desired height during use and can be retracted when not
in operation to minimize the visual impact of the tower. Mr. Ramey indicated that radio
towers designed to function as Commissioner Wulff suggested would be too expensive
for his personal use.
After further discussion, Planning Commission members agreed to the following
• modifications and additions of stipulations for approval of the CUP and variance
applications of Paul Ramey:
